Organizations are considering state-of-the-art workplace strategies to enhance the comfort and well-being of their employees. In common with real estate companies, they also seek to create workplaces that integrate in-house and third-party systems that collect and share information about building use and operation. The goal is for inhabitants of a space to use it more efficiently. As more people are coming to realize, lighting can play a central role in each of these areas. Networked technologies are creating new opportunities to use lighting infrastructure to deliver “great places to work.

Optimizing operations

Of primary importance here are efficiency, compliance, and sustainable, future-ready solutions that can help building owners maximize their investments. Having an energy-efficient solution in place is considered important as well, but as the transition to LED has already significantly decreased energy consumption, finding the ultimate energy-efficient solution, one that will minimize costs as much as possible, isn’t a top priority.

Boosting employee comfort and engagement

Ideally, office design should help employees perform and engage better with each other and the company as a whole. Trends are pointing in that direction and there’s visibly growing interest in creating workspaces that suit the different needs and behaviors of a diverse workforce. Concerns with health and wellbeing are driving factors in this transition. For knowledge-era companies especially, it’s crucial to attract and retain the best talent. Office location and the quality and atmosphere of a workspace are key factors in

recruitment. The offices that stand out are those whose workspaces have been designed in line with a clear vision, a vision that links directly to desired business outcomes.

Enhancing the performance of a space and its users

In terms of performance, the key issue is how lighting can enhance a building’s efficiency and let users use it as effectively as possible. It’s recognized that different office areas—open spaces, meeting rooms, breakout and hospitality areas, and so on—need to be lit differently. Different lighting scenarios in different areas help create recognizable areas in the office, further optimizing the use of space.

Appealing slim design

Looking for a distinct look & feel in your office lighting? SlimBlend comes in a complete family of slim, square and rectangular luminaires - recessed, surface and suspended – that can be used across the office space. This flexible approach allows you to install attractive lighting with a consistent look throughout your office building, using a modern design that blends perfectly into your ceiling architecture.

Comfortable office-compliant lighting

SlimBlend is designed to provide comfortable, pleasant and office-compliant lighting for office workers. Luminaires use the ‘trapped’ light under the edge to create a subtle glow, creating a smooth and soft transition (‘Soft Edge’), and lowering the brightness perception. The light distribution is optimized, with a more tailored beam, and more light in lower angles.

Fast Return on Investment

With SlimBlend, you get the ideal balance between initial cost and return on investment; payback is less than three years. Its side-lit solution efficacy is good. Both installation and maintenance of SlimBlend are quick and easy, which leads to further time and cost savings.

Application and form flexibility

The luminaires in the SlimBlend family have been designed to fit into various recessed ceilings architectures, including those with limited space in the plenum. Furthermore, SlimBlend comes in a complete family of recessed, surface-mounted and suspended luminaires. This flexibility enables you to perform 1:1 replacement, and bring consistency across offices with different ceiling architectures.

Scalable and compatible with lighting systems and controls

SlimBlend can be combined with controls to further enhance savings and comfort. It can even be part of a connected lighting system to deliver additional benefits like data collection on space usage, occupancy and wayfinding.

Soft Edge transition – for improved brightness perception

SlimBlend luminaires use the ‘trapped’ light under the masking to create a subtle glow, creating a smooth and soft transition, and lowering the brightness perception for a more comfortable working environment.

Philips has conducted research to validate the relevance of the Soft Edge. The figure displays the percentage of participants with a positive response to the question “Is the brightness of the luminaire acceptable?” Different luminance patterns were investigated, representing the results for the Lambertian beam shape (no rim, minimal rim, middle rim, homogeneous). It can be clearly seen that positive acceptance of the brightness of the luminaire increased significantly when a Soft Edge is present (minimal, middle and homogeneous) compared to when it is not (no rim).

Optimized light distribution – for low glare and excellent coverage

Another way to ensure high-quality lighting with SlimBlend is to optimize the light distribution through a more tailored beam (2x47°), and to produce more light in the lower angles, keep glare well under control, and ensure the most efficient coverage of horizontal surfaces.

Due to these features, the lighting effects of SlimBlend result in:

• UGR: <19

• L65: 3000 cd/m2

When it comes to designing new office luminaires, Philips has one over-riding objective: the luminaires must deliver lighting of the highest possible quality. Quality is always our number one priority. At Philips, quality lighting means lighting that is fully compliant with all office norms and that delivers a comfortable working experience for office employees.See how SlimBlend delivers this above-standard quality of light.

Micro Lens Optics – for an outstanding look and feel

Philips’ use of patented Micro Lens Optics in SlimBlend is designed to limit light from angles between 65° and 90°. The conical shape produces identical luminance cut-off in all directions; an inverted cone results in less light scattering. The end result is a high-end look and feel due to the liveliness of surface, and the optimal balance between depth and visual appearance of the structure being illuminated.

ActiLume is a wired lighting control system based on the DALI automation protocol (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface). It is designed specifically for office applications, from open-plan to cell offices, lobbies to small meeting rooms, and even corridors and reception areas. By monitoring the daylight levels with light sensors, ActiLume can seamlessly adapt the luminaires’

output levels to “harvest” the available natural light and improve visual comfort for users, while making sure no unnecessary artificial lighting is added. By responding to human movement around the office and incorporating extended delays, the motion sensors guarantee optimally functional lighting, leaving the lights off or dimmed where and when they are not needed.

Maximize savings and comfort with ActiLume

Emergency lighting Safety and peace of mind, with TrustSightWithout emergency lighting in place, power cuts can have devastating consequences in offices, plunging them into darkness and making escape routes impossible to find. TrustSight LED Emergency drivers and batteries provide a fail-safe solution for total peace of mind. In the event of AC power loss, the emergency driver immediately switches from battery charge mode to illumination mode. It takes over the function of the standard LED driver, operating your LED luminaire as a de-centralized system when mains power fails.

TrustSight LED Emergency systems are ideal for office environments as they complement original architectural and lighting designs. Their standard housing and small system dimensions make TrustSight easy to design into SlimBlend luminaires. Moreover, they are easy to install and configure.

What to consider when selecting new office lighting

In some respects, office lighting is working optimally when it’s not noticed. This is when it provides consistent, high quality illumination of the office without causing discomfort or any annoying or undesirable effects.

Here are some aspects of office lighting that ensure a healthy, enjoyable, comfortable, productive and even cost-efficient working environment.

Constant Light Output through lifetime

Like all light sources, LED depreciates over time. When power is constant, luminaires will deliver less light at the end of their lifetime than at the start.

The illustration below left shows a typical solution to counteract this effect. It involves specifying more light initially to ensure a sufficient amount of light later. However, this gives too much light immediately after installation and therefore more energy consumption than is needed to comply with requirements.

The graph below right shows the Constant Light Output (CLO) solution from Philips Lighting. It involves dimming the light at the start (and using less power) and over time increasing the power to correct for the depreciation. The result is that over the full lifetime of the LED luminaire, its light output will remain constant, while energy consumption falls by up to 10%.

Aspects to consider when selecting new office lighting

Eliminating all types of glare

The unwanted effects of overly bright light sources on desks, screens or working areas are all too commonly experienced. They can be due to one or all of the following:

• Direct glare (a bright light source directly in your field of view)

• Indirect glare (a reflected bright light source, for example in a screen)

• Overhead glare (a bright light source above you and outside your field of view).

Office-compliant lighting is required to eliminate direct and indirect glare; elimination of overhead glare is more of a recommended feature.

Reducing flicker and stroboscopic effects

Flicker and stroboscopic effects are associated with a rapidly fluctuating light source. They may lead to undesired effects for office workers such as annoyance, fatigue, headache or reduced performance.

By helping you select the right equipment and components to reduce current fluctuations, we can ensure that flicker and stroboscopic effects are kept within acceptable limits.

ENEC+ certification

Users of LED based products seek validation of the various claims regarding the long-term benefits and performance of LED technology. Responding to this market need, Lighting Europe, the voice of the European lighting industry, and the ENEC Mark, the pan-European independent third party certification scheme for low-voltage products, have combined their efforts to create the ENEC+ Mark.

ENEC+ certification of luminaires and components assures customers that these products are completely safe and perform as promised.

SlimBlend, your office-compliant lighting, delivers all these benefits - and many more.

The meeting room is a versatile space where focused work, collaboration and learning activities are combined with the occasional social events. As such creating a lighting solution to support communication and interactions is key. To do this, a balanced lighting installation is needed lighting both the ‘backdrop’ (the walls) and the faces in a proper manner. By using recessed downlights around the perimeter of the room, an even brightness is created on the walls. Additionally, a suspended luminaire is added above the table to enhance the illumination of faces to improve facial recognition and interaction.

The bulk of our offices still consist of open plan offices where employees have fixed or flexible desks. Used mainly for individual work with the occasional chat with co-workers, this space demands a lighting design that focuses on getting the job done. As such a regular grid of recessed luminaires (either square or rectangular) with a comfortable and soft appearance helps with creating an environment where employees can truly focus on the work and the environment itself does not distract or disturb but instead ‘disappears’ into the background.

The reception area is the business card for any company. It is quite often the first thing that people see when they enter a building. The intention here is leave a good first impression and make customers feel welcome, whereas for the employees it should also be a space which every day still feels like an impressive space making them feel proud of their company. By using a base layer of general lighting with recessed downlights in combination with suspended luminaires over the reception desk, this area becomes bright and truly inspiring.

Whether used for a quick meeting with a colleague or as a private office, these smaller rooms should allow for both focused work and communication. By using four square suspended luminaires, all the lighting requirements are met (as with the large meeting room) while creating an inspiring space to work in.

An area to retreat to, relax in and take your mind off work for a little while, and quite often get an important change of scenery. As such, SlimBlend surface-mounted luminaires can give a different look to the breakout area and differentiate it from the surroundings.
